Demolish half brick wall

What country are you in? - The heating, cooling and electrical outlets suggest that question.

The only brick I see are just surface tiles applied for a backsplash above the countertop.

Is the wall you want to open up made of masonry (brick, block, clay tile) or is a framed wall using steel studs or wood?

You definitely have a lot of electrical and heating/cooling in the wall you want to remove. It would be good to have a local professional look at the situation to determine the feasibility. the concept would certain open up the small spaces into a larger one.

Yes I agree that there are a lot of electrical and heating/cooling in the wall. I will not remove or move any heating hubs but the aircondition might need to move.

Well, at least my observation ability has not deteriorated with age. - I was thinking of Greece and not Turkey and just overlooked Cyprus. Most of what I saw in Turkey was different orientation and heights of outlets. Cyprus has had and long and rich history and influence by both the Greeks and Turks

You walls are probably hollow clay tile (cores either horizontal or vertical) or even solid block with a plastered surface and the channels in the tile routed out for wiring before the final plaster coats. I was always amazed how the 3" or 4" tile can be routed out with a hammer to install the electrical and mechanical to created a very sound wall. The walls could even be pumice blocks since pumice is common, desirable and available in your area. I spent some time in Yali, between Greece and Turkey where there are some of the largests resurces of high quality pumice in the world.

Depending on your abilities, you will need a local craftsman to assist you.
